I just finished with the cyclops saga in epic the musical and bruv,do I have a lot to say
1."just a man" had me in tears.This song singlehandedly made me want to go and purchase the odyssey just to see how I would feel reading Odysseus killing a child and honestly speaking,I would lose it.if I listen to this song a couple of more times, I'm going to therapy
2."open arms" cured the depression of "just a man" almost immediately.It made me have some hope and love the world just a lil' bit until Polites FUCKING DIES!
3.Dying cuz this musical single handedly has the best interpretation of modern day Athena I have always seen."you are Athena(Athena) badass in the arena.Unmatched,witty and queen of the best strategies we've seen" who is always very much a goddess in nature who doesn't tolerate failure, disobedience and disrespect to her.Her relationship with Odysseus in "my goodbye" is the literal definition of a break up song and I'm here for it
Also fuck those little things that led Odysseus and Polite to the cave.Fuck them and I hope some hero killed them all
